City of Heroes Issue 10 – Invasion Trailer

The new trailer for City of Heroes Issue 10: Invasion, is now available for viewing. Shawn posted the story behind the expansion back in July, but to summarize it for you, City of Heroes and City of Villains players must unite against an alien threat known as the Rikti. The video “Invasion” provides background on the alien invasion story in a â€œTV news alertâ€ setting. It shows off man-on-the-street battles between heroes and aliens, with Rikti warships flying overhead dropping soldiers and explosives. The video gives insight into how to best fight the Rikti attack, so it provides entertainment as well as game-play tips.
